Meijer Complaint - Disgusted - Meat Department

Meat Department - Complaint
Review by julieontapp49 on 2012-01-04
MICHIGAN -- I was at the deli counter choosing a cheese and meat for my husband, he is very particular. The woman had an obnoxious tone with me as I made my selections. She then sliced my meat so thin it was falling apart (I asked for thick slices) and my cheese looked like half inch blocks (I asked for thin slices.) She was pricing these items and the bill came to $21, it should have been $11-$12. I asked for the manager. The woman said "You'll have to wait an hour she is on lunch." (Very snotty and rude). I walked about four feet away from the counter to see another woman in a blue shirt. This was the manager. Her name was Kathy and when I asked if she could help me she said "Can't you see I'm on my lunch break, talking to my boyfriend." There was another Meijer manager staning near her and the conversation I interrupted was vulger for a sales floor. As I am not interested in what sex position you prefer. I apologized for interupting but asked saying it would only take a minuteif someone could help. She said "Go find another manager who isn't on lunch and maybe gives a s>>> about your d>>> lunch meat." I was so angry and felt foolish so I left empty handed. Shame on you Kathy for treating a sixty-four year old woman with such disrespect!

In all my years I have never been spoken to or heard any other customer being spoken to in this manner by an employee of any business. You should report this store and these employees to Meijer HQ: http://www.meijer.com/custserv/contactus.jsp

Why would you feel foolish? You wanted your product your way and that is the way it should be.

I changed the time I shopped because I didn't like that particular team at my store, I started going earlier and the whole feel of the store is different.

I had a Walmart female employee call me a b**ch one time, it startled me and I giggled. The look on her face was priceless.

So I learned a lesson, and the lesson was they like it when you get upset. Giggling at them not so much, so I giggle a lot now.

Same here, just. I can tell you right now, I wouldn't have walked away. I would have spoken to the store manager on the spot.

I like shopping at night because there's a different atmosphere from daytime. But I don't want to be locked into that either. I might avoid certain cashiers, but I don't want to plan my shopping schedule around employees with attitudes. The store should know about this, as it could be costing them business.
